Am I being realistic?

Heck, by the end of the project you'll probably have 5K+ in new parts that don't end up on the car! It sounds like a joke, but isn't!

I'm always behind anyone that has the ambition and drive to take on a project like the one you described. I wish you the best of luck.

Fully understand. A fully dressed frame from Morrison or RS will be 20-30k. Then transmission, drive shaft, exhaust, fuel tank/pump/lines, pedals and linkage, shifter, roll bar/cage, belts. I can see having 8k plus just in wheels.

And thank you for the kind words.

And a thank you to everyone else - this has been helpful
